Windows installer but without admin privileges

What did you expect to see?
We'd like to have an installer which can choose between user or admin privileges. Depending on the choice it either installs the software into LocalAppData (user) or ProgramFiles (admin).
NSIS has some documentation about this -> https://nsis.sourceforge.io/Docs/MultiUser/Readme.html The thing is we don't know for sure if cpack supports this (without the need of a custom nsis script)
As I said on Discord,I think it's in our best interest to have a custom NSIS installer anyway.
There is one already (inline) on the mxe build scripts, although it has got some issues.
I suppose CPack is also producing a script itself, and there must be some way to get ahold for it.
I'm sure we can use either of these (I'm more partial to the latter) as a base for a custom script.
